Wake Up

How can i forget when the memory still haunts me?
I never thought it would be this hard
Wake up! Teach me how to forget
Show me how you can mend a broken heart
Is it ...really that hard?
I doubt ..if the sweet aroma i once breathed
still exists ..
I scream at the top of my lungs
all i can hear..is the echo of me
Wake up! It's a wild place
Our hearts are wild creatures
And our ribs..are the cage
Open up your eyes..I'm ready to let go
Hold on to me..erase the past's sweet-bitter memory

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
